First, try to figure out why this happen. If it's aproblem with the
patch, then consider rejecting it. If you want to get it added, look
if it's line-wrapped or similar; usually this can be fixed with
reasonable efforts (assunimg it's a small and simple patch).
Try applying it using "patch -1 --dry-run".
Try applying it manually using your favorite editor.

This is a rare case, then, wehre really nothing was applied.

You will get the same behaviour if at least parts of the patch could
be applied. In this case, it seems that nothing was applied at all.

You could end up being oddly sad and full of a strange, diffuse com-

to wipe out the whole human race and start again with amoebas.
